Section 398.2 Of Article 14. Disclosure Of Sources Of Electrical Generation From California Public Utilities Code >> Division 1. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 2.3. >> Article 14.

398.2
. The definitions set forth in this section shall govern the construction of this article.
  (a) "Retail supplier" means an entity that offers an electricity product for sale to retail consumers in California.
  (b) "System operator" means the Independent System Operator with responsibility for the efficient use and reliable operation of the transmission grid, as provided by Section 345, or a local publicly owned electric utility that does not utilize the Independent System Operator.
  (c) "Specific purchases" means electricity transactions which are traceable to specific generation sources by any auditable contract trail or equivalent, such as a tradable commodity system, that provides commercial verification that the electricity source claimed has been sold once and only once to a retail consumer. Retail suppliers may rely on annual data to meet this requirement, rather than hour-by-hour matching of loads and resources.
  (d) "Unspecified sources of power" means electricity that is not traceable to specific generation sources by any auditable contract trail or equivalent, including a tradable commodity system, that provides commercial verification that the electricity source claimed has been sold once, and only once, to a retail consumer.
